I'm having a problem getting my Asus G1/7700 GO to display on the DVI port. I was able to get QE/CI working in iDeneb 10.5.8 Vanilla by using NVinstaller .52 and selecting the Mobile/Go option. I can't get it to display through my DVI port to my external monitor though. I plug in the monitor and the internal laptop screen flashes blue for a second, as if it is detecting the external display, but my external display never receives any signal.

I've tried editing my NVCAP by extracting my Video BIOS rom using GPU-Z [in windows] and then using NVCAP Maker 1.4 to generate an NVCAP.

The NVCAP string it produces is:

0400000000000500020000000000000700000000

I've edited the plist and replaced the NVCAP value. It yields the same results though.

My video card has three external ports. It has one VGA, one DVI, and one S-Video/Proprietary Nvidia port.
